Orion Polarizing Filter 1.25”

Enhance your celestial observations with the versatile 1.25" Orion Variable Polarizing Filter. This remarkable accessory serves as a dimmer switch for your telescope, allowing you to control the brightness and accentuate the contrast of bright celestial objects like the Moon.

Crafted with precision, this filter offers finer control over image brightness compared to standard fixed-transmission filters, ensuring optimal performance during lunar observing. You can easily adjust the light transmission from a mere 1% to a comfortable 40% by rotating the filter housing.

The filter consists of two high-grade glass polarizing filters securely housed in a rotating 1.25" anodized aluminum cell. It's threaded for effortless use with any 1.25" telescope eyepiece equipped with filter threads, making it a versatile addition to your astronomy toolkit.

The Moon, with its captivating landscape features, is a favorite target for amateur astronomers. However, its brightness, especially during a Full Moon, can be overwhelming. The Orion Variable Polarizing Filter provides an elegant solution, allowing you to tone down the lunar surface's brightness and enjoy optimized contrast in your lunar views. This dimming not only enhances comfort but also reveals intricate lunar details, from mare and mountains to valleys and craters.

Experience lunar and planetary observations like never before with the 1.25" Orion Variable Polarizing Filter, a valuable tool for both novice and seasoned astronomers.
